Hey I Did A Podcast

Hey, I was on a podcast for the Not in Hall of Fame website, which has added a fictional Rock and Roll hall of fame, making us the equivalent of two guys who show up at a party wearing the same shirt. It was fun talking with them: CLICK HERE for podcast.

The Wikipedia Fakebandica; or Rocklopedia Fakebandica 2: Electronic Bookaloo

Hello and welcome to The Rocklopedia Fakebandica! It's a wiki, because there's just too dang many fictional bands out there for one person to keep up with!

Click here to find out HOW DO I ADD A BAND?

Use the search box on the left there, or Browse by YEAR | Browse by MEDIUM (TV, film, etc.) | Browse by CATEGORY

This site is under a Creative Commons license.

Want to add some bands? Email for a login. Post spam or made up stuff and you'll be banned.

Rules? Sure, a few:

  • Keep it real. - Please only bands/musicians from published sources. There's plenty out there; you don't need to make up any on your own. Cite as much source information as possible.
  • Keep it honest. - Please don't cut and paste other people's work. Quoting a modest chunk of source material for context is fine, just credit it.
  • Keep it clean. - Please only use four letter words when they are direct quotes, or part of a band's name, lyrics, album title, etc.

The old, old site is right here, but is no longer updated.
